Free Cars for Life

07.24.2010 by juliegumm@yahoo.com //

Got your attention now didn’t I?

Did you know that the average American family owes approximately $900 a month in car payments?

Kind of crazy isn’t it. And it’s not $900/month toward an “investment”. That money will never be recaptured. Rather we pay $900 a month for the privilege of driving a newer car every month.

We’ve been programmed to think that it’s expected. A car payment is a fact of life.

Right?

That’s what Mark and I thought for years while we traded up and traded in cars over the first six years of marriage.

Want to know a better way? How about free cars for life? Watch this video, but then finish reading for a few final thoughts.

So what’d ya think? Totally makes sense doesn’t it.

But here’s what we found. In the midst of redoing our budget, cutting unnecessary expenses and driving debt-free cars we realized we don’t need a $26k car. We don’t even need an $11k car.

You can find good, reliable, low-mileage (60-8ok) cars for anywhere from $3,500 – 7,500.

And the difference?

Save it, invest it, give it away.

It’s up to you!

If you’re really dedicated, maybe you can join the Junky Car Club 🙂
